Journal Entry

How will you stay focused and motivated to achieve goals in the coming year?

I will stay focused and motivated to achieve my goals this year by making to-do lists, vision boards, and writing down my goals and re-evaluating each month were I am at with achieving my goals. Sometimes it is hard to stay motivated and goal-oriented in prison but I have found that writing my goals down and re-visiting them often helps me stay on track to achieving them. Once I complete a goal I cross it off my list and work on other goals. I make it a habit to write down my to-do list on Sundays to see what I will work on for the week. Every Sunday I revisit and cross off the goals or things that I accomplished that week. If I did not accomplish a task. I re-write it and work on it the following week. By keeping a calendar and a to-do list it helps me keep track of the things I want to accomplish and helps me stay on track.
